Salyut 7
Deorbited
Salyut 7 was a near twin of Salyut 6 with two docking ports for Soyuz and Progress operations. It hosted six long-duration crews, several international visiting missions, the first French spaceflight, Svetlana Savitskaya's historic EVA, and the difficult Soyuz T-13 repair mission after the uncrewed station lost power in 1985.
